I've heard of some awful stories of horses getting hung up, etc., because they didn't have breakaway halters and/or trailer ties. So, it's a bit of a different situation in the trailer.<br />I will have to go and watch those vidoes!Frizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03084225669041286128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2132951832556720515.post-27367364568145465092010-04-05T15:08:02.164-04:002010-04-05T15:08:02.164-04:00What a good girl to stand on those blocks!

The truth of the matter is that my friend Bill does not believe in using breakaway anything. He believes that breakaway halters just teach a horse to pull back and get away with it. All of the horses at Bear River are taught to be ground tied. None of them wear halters in the pasture. I have some videos that show Bill training some of his horses! Take a a look! They are waaaay fun!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VFCq-sHjps and<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HgVIrP4hfMbaystatebrumbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00157539477153261305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2132951832556720515.post-78036735955354899002010-04-03T15:14:11.790-04:002010-04-03T15:14:11.790-04:00Wooohooo, Yoga Brumby!

I'm sure that was a huge reliefe to hear.<br />I do have to be a total safety nazi, though, and point out that it is safer to outfit your brumby in a breakable halter for trailering (either all-leather or nylon with a leather crown-piece). She does look very fetching in that hot pink number, though!Frizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03084225669041286128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2132951832556720515.post-10802361458513182072010-04-03T06:04:01.430-04:002010-04-03T06:04:01.430-04:00Glad there was nothing serious wrong - those x-ray...Glad there was nothing serious wrong - those x-rays look good - I should post Maisie's x-rays sometime to compare.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2132951832556720515.post-85531035088634855012010-04-02T23:47:56.724-04:002010-04-02T23:47:56.724-04:00What a wonderful brumby to stand up there on those...What a wonderful brumby to stand up there on those blocks!! I can tell you that mine would not have done that!<br />I think the DR gave you the pink apron because he saw Lilly's pink halter and knew you would love it!<br />I am so happy to hear that Lilly doesn't have anything wrong with her feet! That is the most excellent news!Paint Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05095673661149903754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2132951832556720515.post-61683050939055743562010-04-02T23:03:03.158-04:002010-04-02T23:03:03.158-04:00This is the best post ever!!!!

From capturing your Brumby's nose peeking out of the trailer, to the handsome vet, to the pink apron and Brumby standing so adorably up on her blocks. I worked as a vet tech for years holding those plates behind the legs and feet of fidgety horses and I can tell you I never saw anything like your Brumby!!! She is absolutely radiant up on her blocks like a princess. What a wonderful Brumby. Thanks for sharing that trip and...relief...the lovely princess feet are fine!juliettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17488138405040629084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2132951832556720515.post-79657368799720636162010-04-02T22:03:51.578-04:002010-04-02T22:03:51.578-04:00What great news!

My Boy has sensitive hooves too, he only wears fronts shoes in the winter but for the riding season, I keep them on him all around. <br />I do not think My Boy would have stood there so nicely on those blocks. Makes me kinda want to try it though, LOL!<br />What will the wedges do specifically that other shoes don't? Do the wedges just help them stay on better?Pony Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02464088874054923635noreply@blogger.com
